"Illusion, Michael. A trick is something a whore does for money"​

This March RedGuides would like to help everyone look their best, so please tell us:

What's your favorite illusion in the game, and how did you get that thing!?​

To enter, just answer the above question, or have an on-topic discussion about illusions. Example:

My favorite illusion is Gunthak Swabby's Eyepatch, it gives a couple nice buffs (89 ac and 900 hp) that remain when you click the illusion off. It's a reward for doing CoTF T1a Mercenary / Partisan / Missions

(links to allakhazam or magelo create a cool hover effect (try it above), and are much appreciated by everyone!)

Prize List:
  • TWO KRONO for one lucky winner.
  • One Krono for one lucky winner.
  • Avatar change (from redcent shop)
  • Color username (from redcent shop)
  • 1 Month of Redguides Level 2 access for you or a friend. Enjoy MQ2 compiles, the internet's largest collection of macros, private strategies, and a great community.


Rules:
No purchase necessary. No more entries after March 31st, 11:59 PM PST.
Drawing will be held in-game on the Vox server, by use of /random. Time & location of the /random will be posted after contest ends, you are welcome to attend.
One reply only, please. Multiple replies (and therefore multiple entries) are allowed so long as you are carrying on a normal on-topic conversation.
Shipping of physical items is to USA only, an alternate prize will be selected if we can't get it to you.
Posting with multiple accounts, or screwing with the contest will lead to certain doom.

By the way, check out our FB page:

I did that on my original three characters... I went out of my way to get a shield for them as well that was a skeleton ribcage and a femur club as a weapon at the time. :) The pain of doing that quest multiple times LOL

I just want to congratulate you on being the first person to find this thread :) After several days I was starting to lose hope

LOL np, for some reason it did not show up on my "New Posts" thread. I actually just stumbled across it while browsing through the forums.
 
One of these days I want to get a group and give them each a Polymorph Wand: Shissar and set them farming in Katta Castrum: Deluge and see if someone starts screaming about a GM event because the Shissar are killing each other.

but my favorite "illusion" was the first time I cast Arch Lich and turned into the haunting old version of the spectre...
 
Form of the bear, the 1st Shaman Illusion. It gave combat Wis bonus and HP regen which of course help a Shaman utilize his canni abilitiy much better...Back in the day before mounts, and many f the other new fangled mana regening stuff we have now...was always fun hiding in among the other bears and watch peoples come up to try and kill the "NAMED" bear.
 
1st thing I do when I make a toon that is heroic or when my own toons hit level is get them the easiest illusion to aquire in game, even solo (at level) Mask of the Mighty Minotaur

Basically to get it you get the quest in Dragonscale Hills , Kicking Tail, go to the minotaur cave and kill a few bullheaded freaks, then you kill 1 named named •Higoren, loot his tail and turn it in. Takes me like 10 minutes to do and most of that is running to the mobs and quest giver...
 
right now I am partial to the Visage of Tyrannosaurus Hatchling, which is a reward for Seafarer, which is basically doing all merc/partisan tasks in TBS.

I am liking it can be put on pets and you, so you can have a batch of wild T-Rex running around, and the jumping graphics are.... amusing.

Did this while on a raid that was picking it's collective nose too long, so I clicked 6 toons and 3 pets worth of T-rex up and ran up and down the raid for a few. We suddenly didn't have an AFK issue....
 
Actually, my favorite illusion is bestial alignment on an Ogre Beastlord. Being able to turn into that huge bear makes me remembers the old days before they started shrinking BST pets and the raid events where the GL would be yelling at all the BST's to shrink the pets. They were so big then you couldn't see the raid target. I remember a PoTime raid and no one could see Rallos Zek between the bears. Those were such good times. :)
 
my favorite illusion, is the aon ( Amulet of Necropotence) , i fidn the illusion very easy to get pasted locked doors with.
 
Hey! Not sure if getting lucky enough to win last time precludes me from entering again, but my entry then and this entry are basically the same!

My favorite illusion, by far, is my Mask of Tinkering (http://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=4811)

I sold my house, my clothes, and my first born to scrounge up 1.2 million plat back when that was an incredible amount. If I recall, I even had to buy 500K of it from somewhere to make up the difference. This was after most old-school bards/rogues had quit, so it was (at the time) one of the last on the server. I'd be really curious to know how many exist there.

Sony/DBG ended up putting gnome illusions into the game via other means, but the Mask of Tinkering will always be my fav.

A close second, though, is the dwarf illusion mask :) I'll use that one when I'm feeling squirrelly. The worst is the wood elf illusion... the factioning that bullshit required was INSANELY shitty. I think I clicked it like 5 times and now it just sits in a bag that I carry around on my toon lol.
 
My AoN: The first item I ever ninja'd, saw it drop on my main while raiding quickly logged on another account and looted it amidst of 50 or so people around the corpse, hid and /q. Logged back on my main, and started yelling in chat about who took the AoN. Never got caught :) Sported that bad boy on main a few days later. That was the beginning of my evil ways. I love EQ.

We missed you Evil Abyss, WB
 
first post for me here in like 10 years... but have to say as a warrior i used to love tanking in a dress... so using AoN and dark elf illusion to wear a dress was always a good look i thought!

For the record... i tried it once in real life, but apparantly not shaving your legs doesnt go well with a dress in a night club!
 
My favorite would have to be the Mask of Nurga from the LoN tournament... This is by far my favorite illusion to feign death with, as your Kunark goblin tongue hangs way out, and just looks ridiculous. Plus, I don't see many people running around with it.
 
Just found this, but gotta say my favorite is Night's Dark Terror. I played an Enchanter main a bit during this era, and it was just such a fun spell that was actually USEFUL. One of the few actually useful illusions of old. And it made for a fun evening as used. Hard to complain.

I also did love the sound and bouncing, though not everyone did.

I think it was over by then yesterday was the April already
 
I believe it was still within, though barely. Either way, I'm not attached to needing to enter. My assumption is that the goal was to spark discussion, so I'm happy to attempt to add to that.
 
he made it :)
